This organiza tion proposes to prosecute a vigorous sampaign in that state and as it is com. posed of sound money democrats will do effective work, There i every reason why business men everywhere should begin to take a lively interest in the financial element of Bryanism and exert themselves to prevent the success of the party which is as fully and firmly committed to the free coinage of sillver as It was four years ago and is therefore no .mell:h‘\- to the nnancial and bus Iness interests of the country than it was in 1800, Mr. Bryan's reference to {he money question in his letter of ac ptance shows that he has not changed in the least and permits no other con clusion than that if ¢ ted he will spave no effort to overturn the gold standurd, beginning with the puyment in sitver of all obligations of the government not s]n-\'llll'nlly payable in gold, True, My Bryun does not sy that he would do | (his, but who can doubt that he would in view of his repeated declarutions of nostility to the gold standard aud his pledge to get rid of it if the opportunity be giyen him.

Mr. Bryan fs undoubtedly quite willing to aceept the authority of Gage that silver can be paid out government obligations payable and knowling this there is not ghitest reason to think he is in doubt 1 to what he would do. He would pro ceed at once to fullill bis pledge to over throw the gold standard, striking at first by paying out silver for such obli gations of the governient as may be paid in silver at the the goy ernment Seer tary for coin in e by option of Intelligent business this would mean.

It seems that literature, too, sometimes follows the flug. The Spanish-American and South African campaigns have causcd | the publication of books dealing, first, with the history and strategy of war; with statistics concerning the countries where the struggles were in progress; third, of romances and novels or children's stories based upon the exciting incidents of the war. The romancers were not slow to perceive the possibilities held forth by a love affair between an American volun- teer and a dusky Cuban, a matter-of-fact Tommy and a stolid daughter of the veldt The same process is being repeated in the case of China. Where we formerly read of thrilling events in Morro castles or on frowning koples we shall peruse tragi tales of life in the crowded tao or on the slopes of the snowcapped shan. The regu- lar army hat and the khaki uniform will give place to the flowing sleeve and the remonious cue. China is to be opened up and exploited for literary as well for commercial purposes.
